Cursed Immortality

Chapter 761: Reel in the Net (11)

”Why! WHY! Just why isnʼt it working on him!” Golden Constant-51,117ʼs voice was filled with disbelief and frustration as he sat cross-legged, and his entire body was trembling.

On the other hand, Asher in front of him was now nothing but skins and bones as his previously burly and healthy was long gone; the phantom of the bull behind him was now extremely vague and on the verge of fading entirely.

Yet, despite everyone Golden Constant-51,117 had done, Jacob remained untouched without any harm. It was now pretty clear to him that it wasnʼt about Soul Serving Formation not having enough power; he had simply underestimated Jacob.

At this point, he even started to believe that Jacob mightʼve had a legendary king-rank soul treasure since it was the only possible explanation for his ridiculous soul defense, or he had simply chewed more than he could handle by going after that kind of entity.

”Ha.haha.hahaha...” Asherʼs creepy laughter suddenly sounded at this moment. Although his voice was extremely feeble and even seemed on the verge of exhaustion, the sheer ridicule and mirth of Golden Constant-51,117ʼs failure was evident in it.

”It seemed you have overestimated yourselves, little roach. If Iʼm not wrong, you are going after that mortal because you think he had a Sacred Scripture or Sacred Artifact on him, right?” Asher suddenly uttered, making Golden Constant-51,117 tremble as he looked towards Asher with shock.

But he quickly hid it and denied it impassively, ”I donʼt know what youʼre blabbering about. But you are right; I admit my plan was a failure.”

”You know exactly what Iʼm talking about. Donʼt think of me as a fool, and there is no need to deny it anymore, for Iʼm already no longer a threat to anyone, and soon, Iʼll be put into slumber for a long time.” Asherʼs voice was filled with bitterness and a hint of hatred as his murky eyes flashed with craziness, ”But donʼt even think about getting away after you put me through this humiliation. Since Iʼm doomed, Iʼll make sure you will never succeed. Oh, by the way, and for your information, Iʼve already recorded yours and his special Soul Signature and sent them with all this information to my lord. Once he hears about it, heʼll pay you in kind... hahahahaha!”

Golden Constant-51,117ʼs eyes widened with horror, ”You lunatic!”

For the first time, Golden Constant-51,117ʼs entire demeanor changed as he knew what this implied because he was truly afraid of Asherʼs master. He knew even if he succeeded today, heʼd never have peace with that kind of existence, constantly looking for him like a bloody hound because, just like him, the allure of those ʼSacred Scripture and Sacred Artifactʼ was enough to drive even gods made with greed.

Furthermore, unlike him, they werenʼt limited, and once they really started looking, there would be no place to hide unless he had one of those Sacred Scriptures or Sacred Artifacts. Although it was only one entity, he didnʼt dare to think he could outsmart or outrun someone like that.

Asher just literally cut off his escape routes, and now he had to get to Jacob and hope that he really had one of those mythical Sacred Scriptures or Sacred Artifacts. If his speculation was incorrect and Jacob didnʼt have any, then heʼd never know peace in his life; no kind of explanation would be enough, and the hunt would last until he died or was captured.

”Oh, now he knows how to fear.” Asher sneered weakly, ”Although I admit I also have such thoughts like yours, you ruined everything. Even if it turned out to be nothing but a madmanʼs dream, we both know you are doomed with me even if you manage to escape today. As long as I can make your life miserable, this long slumber will be worth it. But donʼt worry, once I wake up, I promise you Iʼll burn shit on your tombstone, of course, only if I have any since Iʼm sure you wonʼt even have ash remaining at that time.”

”Bang!”

At this moment, a powerful smashing voice suddenly rang, followed by a cracking noise, drawing Golden Constant-51,117ʼs instant attention as he looked behind, and his eyes widened with disbelief when he saw it was none other than Jacob.

Furthermore, unlike before, the crimson fog was rising from Jacobʼs giant body as if he was on fire, and what made Golden Constant-51,117ʼs heart even further was there were massive cracks on the barrier this time and not on the barrier, but Jacobʼs swords were also seemed to be on the verge of breaking as the blades were full of cracks. It was like his blades couldnʼt handle his power at all!

ʼWhat happened of Golden Constant-70,469!? Wasnʼt she using the Time Shield!? He shouldnʼt be able to bypass, and I know she can keep it up for around 4 minutes! Then how did he manage to kill her, donʼt tell me heʼs immune to ʼTime!ʼ No impossible nothing is immune to time even those entities!ʼ Golden Constant-51,117ʼs mind was raging as he no longer had any idea what the deal with Jacob was.

But what he didnʼt know was while he was distracted by frustration and Asher, Jacob signed an oath contract with Miss or Golden Constant-70,469, and feeling finally reassured, she stopped using the Time Shield to save her golden Timeless Sand.

However, what Golden Constant-70,469 hadnʼt expected in her wildest dreams was the moment she stopped using the Time Shield, Jacob casually approached her and, before she could say anything, stabbed his swords in her head and heart without hesitation. The guy didnʼt even emit killing intent as if he was squashing a bug.

In the end, Golden Constant-70,469 died filled with disbelief and hatred while Jacob absorbed her hourglass, feeling euphoric. She died without knowing how Jacob was able to bypass the oath contract and full grievance towards Golden Constant-51,117.

Nonetheless, Jacob no longer dares to waste more time as he still heeds her warning and instantly appears because the only weakness in this barrier is behind the invisible barrier where Golden Constant-51,117 is hiding.

Furthermore, this time, he finally used his Fluid Acceleration up to 100X, and this crimson smoke was the result of it, which was news to Jacob as well. But he could tell that this time, the Fluid Acceleration was using the Cursed Blood instant of his bodyʼs energy, which meant as long as he had cursed blood, he could use it almost infinitely. Lastly, the power he was the boost he was getting from Cursed Blood was insane and many times higher than any previous Fluid Acceleration.

Nonetheless, he didnʼt lose him in that boundless power because his Cursed Blood was even more precious, so he quickly came here to get rid of this true mastermind behind this entire

scheme.

Golden Constant-51,117 gave up on figuring out how Jacob could survive and overcome all those dangerous situations because he no longer had any intention to test it himself and finally decided to retreat. As long as he keeps his life, he can always come back more powerful and with better schemes.

But alas, at this moment, before Jacob could shatter the barrier, he felt invisible dread suddenly gripped his heart as an ethereal pressure descended the scene. The light started to dim down, and the dome above seemed to have ripped apart almost instantly.

Asherʼs bitter yet gloating voice suddenly rang, ”Hahahaha... here it comes, there is no escaping the Zodiac Plains Enforcement!”

Golden Constant-51,117 knew that he was trapped by his own Net!
